Our large villas cover every conceivable variation on the simple theme that more is definitely more when it comes to a luxury holiday in Italy with those closest to you. Generous gardens and sprawling estates await, with rural farmhouses and contemporary stone villas. While each one is unique, they all exude quality and style – and allow large groups to celebrate together in surroundings that reflect true Italian flair.

In a country that is famous for its love of family gatherings, generously proportioned villas are in abundant supply, but we’ve spent many weeks searching for the very best, including the most popular areas of Tuscany and its stunning Chianti region – a wonderful place to be when it comes to stocking up on excellent wines...

But wherever you decide to bring everyone together, we’ve ensured you’ll have plenty of room, with generous communal spaces, well-equipped kitchens or even the potential of a private chef service to create a truly memorable holiday for six, eight or even 14 of your favourite people.
